      Two Answers To The Question Who Is My Neighbor
      Luke 10-25-37
      2009-11-29
      SYNOPSIS:Regarding the question of "Who is my neighbor", the Lord Jesus Christ, as is usual, gives many answers at once. The parable of the Good Samaritan is rich in symbolism and Theology, and teaches about morality, the church, the second coming and the judgment, but it basically boils down to two broad "answers": we must know God and know ourselves. This parable, more than any other in Scripture, shows the ministry of the incarnate God-man Jesus Christ and the nature of man. If we understand both, we will always know who our neighbor is.

      Descending,then Ascending Fulfills The Gospel
      Ephesians 4-1-6
      2010-11-14
      SYNOPSIS:In this longer than usual sermon, the first part of Ephesians chapter 4 is expounded on. This selection not only presents important dogmas that are the bedrock of our faith, it also presents the proper perspective to have regarding our neighbor - a perspective that will help us to fulfill all the commandments. The doctrine of Christ's descent into Hell is discussed, and its moral application to all of our prayer, and indeed, all of our life. This selection contains some of the most important spiritual lessons a pastor can preach.

      8th Sunday Of Luke
      Luke 10-25-37
      2010-11-28
      SYNOPSIS:The very important Parable of the Good Samaritan, only in Luke is always read in or near the Nativity Fast, appropriately, since it may be the finest exposition of incarnational theology in the Gospels. The answer to the question teaches us a critical virtue - empathy with our fellow man, without which we will not be saved, by describing the whole economy of the incarnation in the symbolism of the elements of the parable. Truly, this is a parable we should contemplate deeply. This parable is read on the 25th Sunday after Pentecost, or in some years when the Lukan jump is employed before this Sunday, on whatever Sunday is the 8th Sunday of Luke. In this year (2010), it was read on the 27th Sunday after Pentecost, which was the first day of the Nativity fast.

      SYNOPSIS:The Parable of the Good Samaritan, interpreted in light of the previous Sunday Gospel - about Jairus. This parable teaches us HOW To obey the hard words of the Lord: "Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. " The key is, first to understand the parable, which teaches us who our neighbor is, and then to act like the Samaritan: "But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was..."
